表演不錯唉。尤其女主,跟小孩逗趣、跟老闆吵架、情緒崩潰都呈現得很好。劇情就是小市民之間的溫情故事了,也不是狗血抓馬,為了“底層”去居高臨下地憑空想像一些“殺馬特“”髒亂差”一類的來堆砌。“移民”的多次出現可以看出導演還有很多想法。看的時候也是覺得女主怎麼可以一直打扮得那麼入時靚麗,豆瓣評論區有美術指導的解釋:底層並不是就要穿著邋遢沒品,時尚也不是一定要用錢才能實現,香港也是有能滿足這樣需求的地方的。所以這樣打破刻板想像的設計也是很用心的。

[從河到海] 最後一齣戲可以說拯救全片,點出主旨:對“以色列”納粹的仇恨高過一切個人恩怨情仇。看前面越看越憋悶,終於在最後爽到!前面劇情讓人難以接受的最主要問題在於男二號的顏值與男一的巨大鴻溝,而且對其人格魅力又缺乏鋪墊,最終造成情節轉折關鍵點爆出來讓觀眾實在不好接受。影片也在這個點上揭示了“以色列”是批著“文明”的皮來做惡的,就像其利用LGBT話題/問題對巴勒斯坦酷兒無恥勒索一樣。

Jonny Appleseed Goodreads Douban
author: Joshua Whitehead publishing house: Arsenal Pulp Press 2018 - 5
"You're gonna need a rock and a whole lotta medicine" is a mantra that Jonny Appleseed, a young Two-Spirit/Indigiqueer, repeats to himself in this vivid and utterly compelling novel. Off the reserve and trying to find ways to live and love in the big city, Jonny becomes a cybersex worker who fetishizes himself in order to make a living. Self-ordained as an NDN glitter princess, Jonny has one week before he must return to the "rez," and his former life, to attend the funeral of his stepfather. The next seven days are like a fevered dream: stories of love, trauma, sex, kinship, ambition, and the heartbreaking recollection of his beloved kokum (grandmother). Jonny's world is a series of breakages, appendages, and linkages--and as he goes through the motions of preparing to return home, he learns how to put together the pieces of his life. Jonny Appleseed is a unique, shattering vision of Indigenous life, full of grit, glitter, and dreams.
Sadness Is a White Bird Goodreads Douban
author: Moriel Rothman-Zecher publishing house: Atria Books 2018 - 2
In this lyrical and searing debut novel written by a rising literary star and MacDowell Fellow, a young man is preparing to serve in the Israeli army while also trying to reconcile his close relationship to two Palestinian siblings with his deeply ingrained loyalties to family and country.

The story begins in an Israeli military jail, where — four days after his nineteenth birthday — Jonathan stares up at the fluorescent lights of his cell, and recalls the series of events that led him there.

Two years earlier: Moving back to Israel after several years in Pennsylvania, Jonathan is ready to fight to preserve and defend the Jewish state, which his grandfather — a Salonican Jew whose community was wiped out by the Nazis — helped establish. But he is also conflicted about the possibility of having to monitor the occupied Palestinian territories, a concern that grows deeper and more urgent when he meets Nimreen and Laith — the twin daughter and son of his mother’s friend.

From that winter morning on, the three become inseparable: wandering the streets on weekends, piling onto buses toward new discoveries, laughing uncontrollably. They share joints on the beach, trading snippets of poems, intimate secrets, family histories, resentments, and dreams. But with his draft date rapidly approaching, Jonathan wrestles with the question of what it means to be proud of your heritage and loyal to your people, while also feeling love for those outside of your own tribal family. And then that fateful day arrives, the one that lands Jonathan in prison and changes his relationship with the twins forever.

Powerful, important, and timely, Sadness Is a White Bird explores one man’s attempts to find a place for himself, discovering in the process a beautiful, against-the-odds love that flickers like a candle in the darkness of a never-ending conflict.

The Refugees Douban Goodreads
8.0 (6 ratings) author: Viet Thanh Nguyen publishing house: Grove Press 2017 - 2
With the coruscating gaze that informed The Sympathizer, in The Refugees Viet Thanh Nguyen gives voice to lives led between two worlds, the adopted homeland and the country of birth. From a young Vietnamese refugee who suffers profound culture shock when he comes to live with two gay men in San Francisco, to a woman whose husband is suffering from dementia and starts to confuse her for a former lover, to a girl living in Ho Chi Minh City whose older half-sister comes back from America having seemingly accomplished everything she never will, the stories are a captivating testament to the dreams and hardships of immigration. The second piece of fiction by a major new voice in American letters, The Refugees is a beautifully written and sharply observed book about the aspirations of those who leave one country for another, and the relationships and desires for self-fulfillment that define our lives.
Another Country Douban
author: 詹姆斯·阿瑟·鲍德温 publishing house: Vintage 1992
Set in Greenwich Village, Harlem, and France, among other locales, Another Country is a novel of passions--sexual, racial, political, artistic--that is stunning for its emotional intensity and haunting sensuality, depicting men and women, blacks and whites, stripped of their masks of gender and race by love and hatred at the most elemental and sublime. In a small set of friends, Baldwin imbues the best and worst intentions of liberal America in the early 1970s.
